I took some more product photos for shop listings this weekend, and decided to try out a new background. For the shirts, I've mostly been using our backyard fence or our hammock. But we also have brick walls on the sides of our house, and one side in particular...
Etsy round-up time! I don't know if you knew this, but January is named for Janus, the Roman god of doorways. Kind of cool, for the month that starts off the new year. So this month I've put together a collection of wonderful door-related items: Door to a New Year by...
This month's Etsy round-up is all about jewelry, and all about the holidays. These red and green pieces span a range of styles, and are great for anytime, not just around Christmas. Take a look: Red & Green Jewelry by Dragonflight Dreams Emerald green filigree...
Coming soon to the shop, the new ivy design. I tried out a new screen-making method with this one (acetate stencil) and I just this past weekend got it printing cleanly. So stay tuned! Meanwhile, today is the last day to take advantage of the holiday weekend coupon...

With Halloween at the end of the month, October seemed like the perfect time to dip into the darker side of Etsy. For this month's round-up, I looked for beautiful pieces with just a little edge of creepiness, weirdness or darkness. And I'm kind of loving how this...
Technically there's still another week before true autumn starts, though here in Texas we'll have at least another month or so of summer weather. That doesn't mean I can't start thinking about fall, right? Right. Accordingly, this month's Etsy round-up features some...
This month's Etsy round-up is all about the pooches. Sienna is currently curled up in a ball right by my feet, doing cute dog snores - not an unusual place for her to be during my work day. She's been super cuddly lately, and seems healthier & happier since we...
